My Youtube account was suspended earlier this Month .I received a mail stating that one of my videos was given “community strike” for not following the Guidelines.The suspension mail also came along with this mail.I read the Community guidelines many times to understand what would’ve went wrong.But I couln’t make it out as my videos are simple demo videos for students to get through their Engineering projects.
Finally I got a link to Appeal for the Suspension.After 2 days I got a mail that my videos are within their Guidelines (???) & my channel was activated.
The story has not ended.
I uploaded a video yesterday, soon after I got a mail again that my account was suspended.I’ve followed their guidelines strictly, but my account was terminated without warning and without any explanation.
As you know , my videos are basically of Tutorials & how to types supporting the projects of Engineering students.I see no reason for the Suspension.I do not spam or copy contents of others.
I create my own videos on my hands on experience.
My 2 years of hard work , 100 videos , 2 lakh+ views & more over my 1000+ subscribers all vanished in a moment.I’m left out helpless & wounded as Youtube refuse to answer or indicate what went wrong.
They simply display an automated notice stating that the videos are not within guidelines.
Please comment below if you’d ever seen my videos.You may comment on support of my videos or demand for a reason from Youtube. You comments may help me reactivate the channel.
For now I’ve created an account with Dailymotion , where I shall post the videos for now.
Hello Saravanan,
I’m so sorry to hear about that! That’s so unfortunate. Seems like YouTube has gone crazy. This incident has instated the fact in my mind not to go with YouTube if you’re serious about your work. I was anyways planning to move my content to Vimeo.
I hope you have a backup of those videos. It’s a pain to re-upload them somewhere else. I really hope that YouTube answers to your request.
Best,
Max
Thanks for your immediate response Mayank.Actually I’m planning to move my content to Vimeo paid channel.Main advantage in Youtube is Google search lands straight on Youtube & Daily motion /Vimeo are blackened by Google .
Well, yes, that’s a point. But Vimeo is indeed more professional and clean. However, YouTube has it’s own benefits. I don’t have much idea about DailyMotion though.
Your uploaded videos are Educational videos, I do not have any clue why they suspended your account.
I hope your uploaded videos will be on line soon.
Its very sad. The videos are only based on just microcontrollers and Embedded system based videos. This videos are useful for engineering students. I am aslo watched all videos. There is nothing in voilations. That videos all are the tutorials and learning of microcotrllers
Tha’ts unfortunate, i’ve been watching your xbee’s videos lately, are you going to reupload all of your videos on dailymotion or only the new videos?
If Youtube is not reactivating my channel I shall continue all my work with Dailymotion.I shall wait for another week.Anyhow I’m not trusting YouTube anymore…
It is sad to hear. I have just been helped by your instruction on the website. So honest and clear instructions like seldom see on-line.
